UN: Air travel from Ebola nations should continue

The spokesman for the UN secretary-general says the United Nations believes air travel to and from the West African countries affected by the Ebola virus should continue despite the first reported case in the United States.
Stephane Dujarric told reporters today that "it's very important not to isolate these countries" as it would worsen their political and economic situations. He says aid groups need access to the region.
The first reported US case involves a man who flew from Liberia to visit relatives. His travel took him through Brussels and Washington before reaching Texas.
Dujarric emphasized the importance of screening at travelers' departure and arrival.

The United Nations has spoken out repeatedly against travel restrictions on the Ebola-affected countries.
The UN has lost one staffer in Liberia to "probable" Ebola.
